This bill would authorize the City and County of San Francisco to reduce the prima facie speed limit to 15 miles per hour when driving on a street or road within Golden Gate Park in the City of San Francisco, with specified exclusions, and report to the Department of Transportation regarding any traffic calming measures undertaken to maintain or increase pedestrian and bicyclist safety, as prescribed. This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to the necessity of a special statute for Golden Gate Park in the City of San Francisco.
